Ventilator Hyperinflation & Hemodynamics

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Ventilator hyperinflation (VHI) has been shown to be effective in improving respiratory mechanics, secretion removal, and gas exchange in mechanically ventilated patients; however, the literature is scarce concerning its safety and adverse effects. Thus, the aim of this study is to compare the hemodynamic repercussions of VHI in volume-controlled mode. In a randomized, controlled and crossover design, 24 mechanically ventilated patients will undergo 2 modes of ventilator hyperinflation (with and without an inspiratory pause) and a control intervention. Cardiac output, cardiac index, mean arterial pressure, pulmonary vascular resistance, systolic volume and other hemodynamic variables will be recorded during the interventions.

Clinical Trial Description

Background: ventilator hyperinflation (VHI) has been shown to be effective in improving respiratory mechanics, secretion removal, and gas exchange in mechanically ventilated patients; however, the literature is scarce concerning its safety and adverse effects. Thus, the aim of this study is to compare the hemodynamic repercussions of VHI in volume-controlled mode.

Methods: in a randomized, controlled and crossover design, 24 mechanically ventilated patients will undergo 2 modes of ventilator hyperinflation (with and without an inspiratory pause of 2 seconds) and a control intervention. For the VHI interventions, the inspiratory flow will be set at 20 Lpm, and tidal volume will be increased until a peak pressure of 40cmH2O is achieved. During the control intervention, the patients will remain in volume-control ventilation with an inspiratory flow = 60Lpm and tidal volume = 6mL/IBW. The interval between interventions (washout) will be of 10 minutes or more, according to the time needed to recover the cardiac index to baseline values (maximum difference of 10%). Cardiac output, cardiac index, mean arterial pressure, pulmonary vascular resistance, systolic volume and other hemodynamic variables will be recorded during the interventions by using impedance cardiography. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
